Down Syndrome Awareness Month Spotlights: Adriann Weddington


Happy Monday & Day 5 of Down Syndrome Awareness Month!! ???????? Adriann Renee’ Weddington- she is definitely the bright light in our lives. She always keeps us on our toes no matter what we are doing. She is by far the strongest little warrior I have ever met and takes everything on without blinking an eye (even when mommy always worries she always proves that she will be alright). She loves her barbies and singing “church music” as she calls it. Her favorite thing to do with her dad is blaring Frozen 2 music or She is Beautiful on the stereo. She also has a love for animals…currently right now it’s my mom’s cat Little Bit but she calls her kitten. The cat hates everyone but Adriann it seems. Adriann always is wanting to do what all the other kids are doing and tries her best. Her hobbies include cheerleading, playing with her tablet, barbies, swimming, and jumping on the trampoline. I cannot imagine life without this little lady and I never knew I could love someone so much. If you’d like to share your loved one with Down syndrome, please email ivyf@dsoflou.org #DSLKindnessWarrior #DownSyndromeAwareness #DownRightPerfect
